"With SENTRY enrollment complete, our teams remain focused on clinical trial execution, preparing for top-line data in March, potential regulatory filings, and commercial launch readiness, as we work to redefine the standard-of-care for frontline myelofibrosis patients, pending regulatory approvals."

Third Quarter 2025 Highlights

XPOVIO Commercial Performance

U.S. net product revenue was $32.0 million in the third quarter of 2025, an increase of 8.5% compared to $29.5 million in the third quarter of 2024.

Demand for XPOVIO was consistent in the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024, with the community setting continuing to drive approximately 60% of overall net product revenue.

Expanded global patient access for selinexor is translating into growth in royalty revenue from the Company’s international partners, primarily the Menarini Group. Royalty revenue increased to $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to $0.9 million in the third quarter of 2024.
Research and Development (R&D) Highlights

Myelofibrosis

The Phase 3 SENTRY trial (XPORT-MF-034; NCT04562389) completed enrollment with 353 patients in early September 2025. SENTRY is evaluating 60 mg once-weekly selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib compared to ruxolitinib plus placebo. The preliminary baseline characteristics for patients enrolled in SENTRY are representative of the intended patient population. In addition, preliminary blinded aggregate safety data from the first 61 patients with a median follow-up of greater than 12 months may suggest improvements in both hematologic and non-hematologic treatment emergent adverse events as compared to the Phase 1 data evaluating selinexor 60 mg weekly in combination with standard of care ruxolitinib in JAKi-naïve myelofibrosis patients, as well as historical ruxolitinib monotherapy data. The Company cautions that the preliminary baseline characteristics and preliminary blinded aggregate safety data may not ultimately be reflective of the actual trial results.

The Company continues to enroll JAKi-naïve myelofibrosis patients with platelet counts above 50,000 in the selinexor 60 mg cohort of the Phase 2 SENTRY-2 trial (XPORT-MF-044; NCT05980806). A recently amended protocol includes patients with platelet counts above 100,000. The Company expects to report top-line data from all patients in the 60 mg cohort with at least 24 weeks of follow-up in 2026.
Endometrial Cancer

Enrollment continues in the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 (NCT05611931) trial evaluating selinexor as a maintenance-only therapy following systemic therapy versus placebo in patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer.
Multiple Myeloma

Enrollment in the Phase 3 XPORT-MM-031 trial (EMN29; NCT05028348) was completed in the fourth quarter of 2024 (n=117). The trial is being conducted in collaboration with the European Myeloma Network and is evaluating the all-oral combination of selinexor 40 mg, pomalidomide and dexamethasone (SPd40) in patients with previously treated multiple myeloma who received an anti-CD38 in their immediate prior line of therapy.
Anticipated Catalysts and Operational Objectives

Myelofibrosis

Top-line data from the Phase 3 SENTRY trial is expected in March 2026.
Multiple Myeloma

Maintain the Company’s commercial foundation in the increasingly competitive multiple myeloma marketplace and drive increased XPOVIO revenues.

Continue to support global launches by our partners following regulatory and reimbursement approvals for selinexor in ex-U.S. territories.

Continue to follow patients that are enrolled in the Phase 3 XPORT-MM-031 (EMN29) trial. The Company expects to report top-line data from this event-driven trial in the first half of 2026.
Endometrial Cancer

Continue to enroll patients into the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 trial of selinexor as a maintenance monotherapy for patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. The Company expects to report top-line data from this event-driven trial in mid-2026.
2025 Financial Outlook

Based on its current operating plans, Karyopharm expects the following for full year 2025:

Total revenue to be in the range of $140 million to $155 million. Total revenue consists of U.S. XPOVIO net product revenue and license, royalty and milestone revenue earned from partners.

U.S. XPOVIO net product revenue to be in the range of $110 million to $120 million.

Lowering the range of R&D and selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses to $235 million to $245 million.

The Company expects its existing liquidity, including the revenue it expects to generate from XPOVIO net product sales and its license agreements, will be sufficient to fund its planned operations into the second quarter of 2026.
Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Total revenue: Total revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $44.0 million, compared to $38.8 million for the third quarter of 2024.

Net product revenue: Net product revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $32.0 million, compared to $29.5 million for the third quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by gross-to-net favorability.

License and other revenue: License and other revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $12.0 million, compared to $9.3 million for the third quarter of 2024. The increase was primarily driven by milestone-related revenue from Menarini.

Cost of sales: Cost of sales for the third quarter of 2025 was $2.1 million, compared to $1.3 million for the third quarter of 2024. Cost of sales reflects the costs of XPOVIO units sold and the costs of products sold to our partners.

R&D expenses: R&D expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $30.5 million, compared to $36.1 million in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease was driven by lower clinical trial costs for selinexor in multiple myeloma, reflecting the reduced scope of our Phase 3 trial, and lower personnel and stock-based compensation expenses resulting from previously implemented cost-reduction initiatives.

SG&A expenses: SG&A expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $26.6 million, compared to $27.6 million for the third quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by the realization of previously implemented cost reduction initiatives, largely offset by higher professional fees incurred during the quarter in connection with the financing transactions announced by the Company on October 8, 2025.

Loss from operations: Loss from operations for the third quarter of 2025 was $15.2 million, an improvement of approximately 42% compared to a loss of $26.3 million in the third quarter of 2024.

Interest expense: Interest expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $11.0 million, compared to $11.4 million for the third quarter of 2024.

Other (expense) income: Other expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $7.4 million compared to other income of $3.8 million for the third quarter of 2024. The change is primarily attributable to recurring non-cash fair value remeasurements related to the refinancing transactions that were completed in the second quarter of 2024.

Net Loss: Karyopharm reported a net loss of $33.1 million, or $3.82 net loss per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2025, compared to a net loss of $32.1 million, or $3.85 net loss per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024. Net loss included non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $2.8 million and $4.2 million for the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Cash position: Prior to the receipt of approximately $32 million of net proceeds from the financing transactions announced by the Company on October 8, 2025, cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments as of September 30, 2025 totaled $46.2 million, compared to $109.1 million as of December 31, 2024. On a proforma basis, cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments would have been approximately $78 million. The Company’s cash balance as of September 30, 2025 reflects the benefit of $7.4 million of interest that was paid-in-kind and royalties that were deferred in connection with the Company’s financing transactions announced on October 8, 2025.

About the Phase 3 SENTRY Trial

SENTRY (XPORT-MF-034; NCT04562389) is a Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating a once-weekly dose of 60 mg of selinexor in combination with ruxolitinib compared to placebo plus ruxolitinib in JAKi-naïve myelofibrosis patients with platelet counts >100 x 109/L. Patients are randomized 2-to-1 to the selinexor arm. The co-primary endpoints for this trial are spleen volume reduction ≥ 35% (SVR35) at week 24 and the average change in absolute total symptom score (Abs-TSS) over 24 weeks relative to baseline.

About Myelofibrosis

Myelofibrosis is a rare blood cancer that affects approximately 20,000 patients in the United States and 17,000 patients in the European Union1. The disease causes bone marrow fibrosis (scarring in the bone marrow), which makes it difficult for the bone marrow to make healthy blood cells, splenomegaly (enlarged spleen), progressive anemia which often leads to symptoms like fatigue and weakness, and other disease associated symptoms including abdominal discomfort, pain under the left ribs, early satiety, night sweats and bone pain. The only approved class of therapies to treat myelofibrosis are JAK inhibitors, including ruxolitinib. Patients treated with the most commonly prescribed JAK inhibitor often require blood transfusions, and more than 30% will discontinue treatment due to anemia.2 Anemia and transfusion dependence are correlated with poor prognosis and shortened survival.3

About the Phase 3 XPORT-EC-042 Trial

EC-042 (XPORT-EC-042; NCT05611931) is a global, Phase 3, randomized, double-blind clinical trial evaluating selinexor as a maintenance therapy following systemic therapy in patients with TP53 wild-type advanced or recurrent endometrial cancer. The EC-042 trial is expected to enroll approximately 276 patients who will be randomized 1:1 to receive either a 60 mg, once-weekly, administration of oral selinexor or placebo until disease progression. The trial includes two patient populations, for which, the primary endpoint of progression free survival will be tested sequentially and the key secondary endpoint of overall survival will be evaluated: 1) a modified intent to treat population (mITT) that will include patients with either, a) TP53 wild-type tumors with proficient mismatch repair status (pMMR); or, b) TP53 wild-type tumors with deficient mismatch repair status (dMMR), who are medically ineligible to receive checkpoint inhibitors; and, 2) the trial’s original intent to treat (ITT) population, which will include all patients enrolled in the trial whose tumors are TP53 wild-type, regardless of MMR status. The mITT population is expected to include approximately 220 patients. In connection with the EC-042 trial, Karyopharm entered into a global collaboration with Foundation Medicine, Inc. to develop FoundationOneCDx, a tissue-based comprehensive genomic profiling test to identify and enroll patients whose tumors are TP53 wild-type.

About Endometrial Cancer

Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common gynecologic malignancy in the U.S.1 In 2025, approximately 69,120 uterine cancers (predominantly endometrial) are expected to be diagnosed, with 13,860 deaths.1 In 2022, there were about 420,368 cases with 97,723 deaths worldwide.2 Both incidence and mortality have continued to rise.3,4 Key risk factors include obesity, type 2 diabetes, high-fat diets, tamoxifen or oral estrogen use, and delayed menopause.5 TP53 is a well-recognized prognostic marker for EC; >50% of advanced or recurrent EC tumors are TP53wt (gene for tumor protein P53; wild-type), and ~40%-55% are both TP53wt and mismatch repair-proficient (pMMR).6-8 While immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown benefit in patients with mismatch repair–deficient (dMMR) and pMMR, the magnitude of benefit is greater for patients with dMMR tumors versus pMMR tumors.9-10 There remains an unmet need for targeted therapies for patients with pMMR EC.11
